Think of it this way: the $5 you saved on that Dana Stabenow series purchase you would have made anyway has subsidised the 99 cent book you picked up, so essentially, free book!
And now you also have an extra $4.01 in savings that you can apply to another book or four. Or just to booze to make you forget* you bought all those books in the first place.
Incidentally, it looks like Stabenow no longer sells her e-books directly off her site? (At least, the non-outside-store links have been removed.) That must make it harder for her readers outside the US who need a plain or at least ADE-compatible ePub version instead of fiddling with the "NookBook" or the iDevice variant.
* Mind you, one would have to be a very cheap drunk to be able to accomplish this for $4.01, so perhaps you'd be better off just going straight to buying the extra books.
